۞ MATURE CONTENT!!! ۞ Amaya once cherished her name. But after enduring five miserable lives, reincarnating again and again into the same family, in the same world, at the same time, she had come to loathe it—almost as much as she despised the Gods who seemed to toy with her existence, breaking her sanity for their own amusement. The only constants in her endless cycle were her suffering, a family willing to sell her to another kingdom for their survival, a lifetime of trauma, and the one man who granted her the only release she ever knew—death. Roman Nebelhain, the prodigious Crown Prince of the mighty Nebelhain Empire, with crimson waves of hair and piercing opal eyes, was her savior in every life. In her 1st life, sold at 11 to an aging, abusive king for military protection, her torment ended when Roman invaded her kingdom. At her pleading, he granted her the mercy of death at 13. In her 2nd life, despite trying to avoid her family’s schemes, she was sold to another cruel prince, enduring worse abuse until Roman’s blade ended her suffering once again. Her 3rd life saw her sold to Roman’s enemy, Zephyr Astrophel, a man who sought to use her magical bloodline for power, only to drive her to the brink of despair. At 25, she begged Roman to end it once more. In her 4th life, she ran from her fate, living briefly in peace until war tore her sanctuary apart. Overwhelmed by grief and rage, she unleashed her power, killing her enemies before turning to Roman for the solace of death yet again. Each life ended the same, and each time, Amaya awoke again, trapped in the endless loop of reincarnation. But in her 5th life, something changed. This time, she resolved to break the cycle. If death had always brought her to Roman, perhaps life would, too. Pretending to be mute to disarm those around her, Amaya set her sights on the man who had unknowingly been her only constant. Her plan was simple: find Roman, convince him to help her, and finally escape the Gods' cruel game. But what she didn’t realize was that this was their plan all along. The Gods had destined her and Roman to be together—not in death, but in life—and this time, there would be no running from it.

When the once thriving economy of any entity - be it an individual, a corporate body, or a sovereign state - begins to decline; when its human or natural endowments turn sour; then some things have gone wrong which could be due to either internal or external influence. The Vain Garden is a book of fiction, which tries to depict the effect of negativism on virtually every aspect of life. As a common saying holds true, it is indeed easier to destroy than build and this book lays it bare. While true nationalists strive to build a stronger state through selfless service, there are those whose interests lie only in what they can grab from it not considering the ills their actions and inaction may bring upon the people. Such careless and unproductive leadership leaves the state in chaos and years of arduous efforts, sleepless nights and invested resources fizzle out in moments. The book tells the public that inasmuch as no living being has so far proven to attain perfection, it behooves on each of us to boycott attitudes and lifestyles that are inimical to progress and capable of severing or thwarting achievements at all levels. Concisely, this book totally condemns any behavior that is opposed to proper moral conduct. The feeling of heartbreak and pain that we get when things do not produce the expected results after so many invested resources are what this book, The Vain Garden tries to elucidate.
